I guess my point is that most think our great youngsters are in the main a bit shit. That maybe people on here rate the likes of Pickford Holgate Vlasic, DCL and kenny in hope rather than anything they've seen because they've all been a bit crap

If we bring in a manager like Fonseca who knows little to nothing about this squad, our youngsters or even the English league then these kids might stand a chance if they put in a proper fitness shift this summer to get up to speed quickly and try and impress. Someone like that is probably what we need, no pre-conceived ideas of ability or talent based on transfer fee or wages.
